What is automatic FAQ generation?

For products of the same type, the most frequent questions and answers will be the same. Therefore, you can create text templates of questions and answers for certain groups of products, categories, manufacturers. In the text of the template, you can write variables, instead of which specific values will be substituted for each page, for example, the name of the product or category, prices, etc.
For large catalogs, it takes a lot of time to add FAQs to each page. However, the automatic formation of FAQ will allow to do it much faster.

Does the SEO FAQ module guarantee that the FAQ will appear in search results?

Of course not. The module forms an SEO snippet according to the general rules for adding structured data. But ranking in the search results depends on the quality of the content you create. If Google decides that you have useful and high-quality content, it will display it in the search results. Create high-quality questions and give useful answers - this will allow you to rank better in search results.

Is it possible to create individual FAQs for individual products, categories, manufacturers?

The SEO FAQ module for OpenCart allows you to create individual questions and answers for products, categories, manufacturers, as opposed to the mass formation of FAQs based on given templates. This means that you can create your own set of questions and answers for a specific product or category. And full multilingual support in the SEO FAQ module allows you to create questions and answers for each language.

Why add product listings to FAQ text?

In the text of the answer, you can add a list of products with links to them. In this way, you will get additional internal linking to your site, as well as more links to your own store in one search result in Google. This list of products should organically fit into the answer and be useful for the client. Only then will users follow such links from advanced search results.

Чудовий модуль! Замовив, оплатив, отримав ключі в особистому кабінеті. Встановив і зробив базові налаштування за прикладом адмініки в демо сайту модуля. Дуже гнучкі налаштування, дають змогу зробити унікальні запитання і відповіді для Товарів, Категорій і Виробників і зробити різне виведення інформації для обраних або всіх Товарів, Категорій і Виробників. Це дає змогу виділитися серед конкурентів. Дуже корисна функція: Виключено додавання в FAQ товарів, яких немає в наявності і товарів з нульовою ціною, а також зроблено підрахунок кількості товарів і мін.-макс. ціни за категорією та її підкатегоріями. Гарна техпідтримка. Рекомендую!

Very good extension for individual FAQ´s on category and product level, not just a single stand alone FAQ page. Also good and quick support when I wanted to add a unique function for the module. 5 of 5 stars!
